Autumn Knits

I definitely feel like my clothing style is maturing as I get older. I would've not normally worn a plain knit jumper with jeans in the past. I feel like as my mind gets wiser, more experienced, more confident and understanding, my style moves in sync as I transition from a naive girl with the lowest self-esteem you could imagine- into a woman finally understanding her self-worth and finally making a good life for herself. It makes me happy :)

This knit is from Showpo and is a perfect transition staple to winter. The thick wool knit material keeps you warm but whilst it's not freezing yet you can expose a bit of shoulder. The bottom of the jumper is actually fitted, so you can wear it with anything underneath without looking bulky or shapeless.

I'm trying to make more use of my parents' house to take outfit photos. Since I use a heavy ass tripod with an equally heavy camera + lens, and I'm still shy about passerbys outside my house, I'm limited in where I can move around to take my pics. However since autumn is here I felt like I needed to take advantage of the orange and red leaves and capture them in the background.

It's a great casual outfit--love the soft cashmere-looking sweater! I have the same problem taking photos in front of people on the street. I find myself gravitating to quiet spots in the city where no one is around! The leaves turning color do make a gorgeous backdrop!
